i think you should just stop waisting your time. there will come a time when partying will come into play(21) and he will forget all about you..... so why hurt urself like that

Age is just a number and when you fell for him i am sure it never entered your head till later cause the love that would have been there would have by passed that.
You wont know if your wasting your time or not till you both move in and live together the only way you will find out if your both compatible is by doing this and i see no reason why you have to tell anyone his age as long as your not breaking any laws!

Hey -- just one comment here... you mentioned moving in together -- cool for you guys!! ...but, you did say that he's 17. In the States, that would be a problem. I'm sure Canada has laws similar to that (or at least some law that states when a person is considered an adult). I mention this to you because I don't want to see you get into trouble. Yeah, age is just a number, but in some cases, it's a number that can get you into trouble... might be safer to wait until he's 18 before you live together...

Years are just a number. If you're compatible and know he's the one for you, stick with your feelings and the direction they take you. If we listened to everyone who passes judgment, most of us would never get anywhere.

I think if you want to be with him, why hide the truth. Hiding the truth says their is something to be embarrassed by.
